Today is the International Day of Ear and Hearing Health
The ear is the organ responsible for the perception of sounds, and it is a unique sensory area. If a person has no hearing, he becomes socially maladapted, and it is difficult for a person to be in society; he can not work normally and communicate.
The doctor-otorhinolaryngologist of the Nizhnekamsk CRMH Iskander Mubarakshin told us what ear diseases his patients suffer from.
Why can't we hear it?
"Hearing loss can occur in everyone, from young children to the elderly, but each age has its reasons. All ear diseases are accompanied by hearing loss. The reason for a visit to our doctors can be any inflammatory diseases, professional hearing loss (this is when a person works in a harmful production where there is an intense noise), age-related hearing loss, tumors of the auditory nerve. There is a concept of hereditary hearing loss.
Particular attention should be paid to headphones, so favored by many. A loud sound and a speaker that is located in the ear canal is very harmful. Now hearing loss is getting younger, the reason for this is not only headphones, but also nightclubs young people visit and the habit of listening to loud music in the car."
Do not delay your visit to the doctor.
"If you or your loved ones notice that you have a hearing loss, if there is a noise in your ears or any other painful sensations, in order not to start the disease, you should immediately go to an otolaryngologist for an examination. Because there are diseases that need to be treated literally within a week, and if the therapy is not provided in time, the patient can remain deaf forever. Also, we should not forget about the periodic professional examinations. To date, there are modern surgical and therapeutic methods of restoring hearing. For example, if children are born deaf, there is a cochlear implantation, when a special implant is implanted in the child, and even with complete deafness, he begins to hear over time. Doctors of our profile are constantly trained and improve their knowledge in the field of otorhinolaryngology.
Take care of your hearing, go to the doctors in time and be healthy!»
